Recovering punctuation marks for automatic speech recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper shows results of recovering punctuation over speech transcriptions for a Portuguese broadcast news corpus. The approach is based on maximum entropy models and uses word, part-of-speech, time and speaker information. The contribution of each type of feature is analyzed individually. Separate results for each focus condition are given, making it possible to analyze the differences of performance between planned and spontaneous speech.

متن کاملSpeech recognition with automatic punctuation
We present a method of speech recognition with automatic punctuation based on a combination of acoustic and lexical evidence. In the recognizer vocabulary, punctuation marks are treated as word entries. By assigning the acoustic baseforms of silence, breath, and other non-speech sounds to punctuation marks, and using a properly processed N-gram language model, unpronounced punctuation marks of ...

متن کاملCommas Recovery with Syntactic Features in French and in Czech
Automatic speech transcripts can be made more readable and useful for further processing by enriching them with punctuation marks and other meta-linguistic information. We study in this work how to improve automatic recovery of one of the most difficult punctuation marks, commas, in French and in Czech. We show that commas detection performances are largely improved in both languages by integra...
